Critical Conversations
The road from Individual Contributor to People Lead can be a treacherous journey. Suddenly, we’re expected to lead engaging meetings, give useful feedback, provide meaningful coaching, motivate & recognize others – and we’re woefully under-equipped. We need a toolkit, some useful models, but most importantly, we need a safe place to practice.
Our Approach
A three-part program focused on Setting the Scene, Talking & Listening, and Moving to Action, Critical Conversations leverages some of our most popular and innovative methods — Scripted Drama, Interactive Case Studies, Enhanced Role Play — to provide participants with a potent mix of best practices, meaningful practice and real-time feedback.
The Program
